Don't wait until your staff have a requirement to stay at home to work. Start planning now!

With the increased number of reported cases of Coronavirus in the UK this week, Managers need to ensure that employees have the necessary tools to continue working from home should the need arise.

Do your staff have secure access to your IT resources via the internet and virtual private network?

Will the internet connection at every employee's home be adequate to work remotely especially for those working in remote areas and has your remote work strategy identified the gaps?

Do they have the right equipment to work from home ie:- laptops, tablets, phones, printers? Is your phone system able to route calls to mobiles?

Have you communicated the remote work policy together with a plan to all staff members?

Over the next few months your business will need to be prepared for every eventuality.

Winston Churchill is credited with saying: “He who fails to plan is planning to fail.”

A new Somerset consortium has joined forces to give supply chain members working on the Hinkley Point C (HPC) project the best possible IT security advice and Government-recognised IT security accreditation.

The Somerset Cyber Group was formed last year by three local companies – Yeovil-based CETSAT and Blueloop and Bridgwater-based PC Comms. Between them they have decades of experience working with Government, defence and leading crime fighting agencies.

Although all companies involved with the construction of Hinkley Point C must undergo formal security assurance for their systems, the Somerset Cyber Group is helping them to improve beyond best practice.
